1 Genesis 7&8 7 And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation. 1 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female. Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded him. 6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon 7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood. 8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth, 9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah. 10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon 11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. 1 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights. 1 Noah was chosen by God as the father of the reset of humanity. God says come, implying he will be with Noah in the ark. Clean beasts are animals God said were good for eating, unclean were not. (Lev. 11) This is a repeat of Noah's obedience (Gen. 6:) This is the time stamp for the duration of the time of the flood. Notice that it is not just rain, but fountains of the deep thrust water upwards as well. 1

2 1 In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark; 1 They, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind, and every fowl after his kind, every bird of every sort. 1 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life. 16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above 18 And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters. 19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered. 0 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered. 1 And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man: All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died. And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark. 7 And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days. This scripture says everything that had breath, and was of flesh and blood, (save sea life) and survived, were in the ark. 6 It is appropriate that God himself shut the ark up. It was by his command, and his doing, that the earth would be destroyed, so God shutting the ark sealed his protection on them and all in the ark. 7 The Bible is specifically stating how God did exactly as he said he would and destroyed everything on

3 8 And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that was with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters assuaged; 8 The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained; And the waters returned from off the earth continually 9 : and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated. And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat. 10 And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen. 6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made: 7 And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off 8 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground; 9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark. 10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark; 11 And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off 1 And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove 11 ; which returned not again unto him any more. 8 After 10 days God sends a wind to help move the water in its place. 9 The water that was on the surface of the earth returned to its place under 10 The ark rested, and the waiting period begins. Mt. Ararat is believed to be in Turkey with an elevation of 17,000 feet. 11 Noah sends the dove out three times. Each time a week apart.

4 1 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry. 1 And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried. 1 1 And God spake unto Noah, saying, 16 Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee. 17 Bring forth with thee every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon 18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him: 19 Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, and whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their kinds, went forth out of the ark. 1 0 And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD 1 ; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar. 1 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done. While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease. 1 1 The total time in the ark for Noah, his family, and the animals was one year and ten days. 1 God has made the reset of the earth complete. 1 The first thing Noah does is builds an altar to worship God. Now we see why there were 7 sets of the clean animals brought on the ark. The extra animals were for sacrificial purposes. 1 God promises to continue to allow creation to continue with seasons, seedtime and harvest, day and night, until the earth no longer exists.
